W10 Blog Topic : What would make writing on Wikipedia easier for me?

I have to admit that Wikipedia itself has made pretty easy to add information and edit it with many tools and helpful guide. As long as we have access to Internet, have basic knowledge of how to use Internet, and are willing to learn by spending time to look at manuals or asking around others, it wouldn't be that big of deal to use it. Also, we can learn by checking how others are using Wikipedia and how articles are written and organized. If we don't know a template, we can simply copy and twist it. In fact, I like we can do those things.
For me, then, making myself easier to write in Wikipedia is something to consider in a different dimension. I don't think technical thing would be a problem for many of Wikipedians. It would be more like a matter of contents. So, I think it's good to live with Wikipedia. What I meant by that is when I am exposed to new knowledge or anything in my daily life, I need to connect them with Wikipedia on how to put that information in it. Also, checking newspaper and being aware of what's happening in the world would be essential to keep Wikipedia updated in a field of what I am interested in.

  1. In my case, I was difficult to use Wikipedia because I was not familiar about Wikipedia. I didn't know how could I edit an article before I took a lecture. There were many tools on Wikipedia, so I was confused about some editing tools. T.T But after I tried to use Wikipedia, I felt more easy to edit Wikipedia.
